They returned to the Institute to find Duncan's friends were gone but Duncan was still there. Rogue took Colin out of his stroller and motioned for Pietro to follow her. He nodded as they quietly walked passed the common room where Jean and Duncan were talking. "Hold it right there." Jean's voice said.
Pietro groaned. "Great just what we need."
"Just don` start anythin` in front of Colin." Rogue told him as they entered the room.
"Maximoff you are so dead." Duncan growled getting to his feet.
Rogue stood in front of Pietro holding Colin in her arms. "Yer not goin` ta touch him ya hear."
"Rogue why would Pietro say that Colin is his baby and he doesn't belong to either of you?" Jean asked her.
"I said it because your little boy-toy there was harassing Rogue about the baby. And it seems like it should belong to Rogue and I since we're the only ones he likes."
"Well he lahkes Logan." Rogue told him. "Now if ya`ll would excuse us Colin needs his diaper changed.
Pietro smirked at Duncan who was about to go over and punch him but Jean held him back as he followed Rogue upstairs. "So are you allowed to have guys in your bedroom?"
Rogue shrugged. "Does it matter? Ah mean yer tha only one who can hold Colin besides me."
"Am I the only one who can come near you while your holding him too?" He asked standing in front of her now.
"Well, it depends on if ya count Logan."
He pretended to pout. "And I wanted to feel special."
"Ya are special Pietro. Besides you an` Logan no one else can come near me if ah'm holdin` Colin."
"Guess you'll just have to take him with you to school when it started up again."
"Yea tha love an` joyous fun is over in two weeks, seems a long tahme away since it just started on Friday."
"Do you think the professor will let you keep him?"
Rogue sighed and looked into Colin's beautiful blue eyes. "Ah hope so. Ah mean ah don` care if he's tha only person ah'm ever goin` ta be able ta touch. If he is than ah don` want anyone ta take him.
Pietro put his arm around Rogue's shoulder as she sniffled lightly. "I'll make sure no one takes him from you Rogue, or from us."
***********************************************
Colin looked up and saw her slightly crying. He whimpered a bit and held his arms up to her. She wiped her eyes and smiled at him picking him up. He still needed a diaper change, but he wanted to make sure she'd stop crying first otherwise he'd start crying too.
***********************************************
"See he loves you Rogue. I don't think the professor is that heartless to take him away from you."
"Ah hope yer right." She said leaning her head against him as he took his hand and rubbed her shoulder. "Come on ya still need ta change his diaper, sugar."
Pietro groaned as Rogue laid Colin back on her bed. "This is going to be hell.
She quickly put her finger to his lips. "No cussin` in front of tha baby."
He smiled and kissed her finger causing her to blush. "All right, now let's begin."
***********************************************
"Where are they?" Evan asked.
"Probably changing Colin's diaper." Kurt said. "Relax Evan."
"How can I relax? I don't want him near Rogue."
"Hey it's not like Pietro would ever hurt her, yo." Todd said angrily. "She was part of our family before she came to yours."
"Yea and you guys all lied to her too." Scott said heading near the kitchen door.
"Where are you going?" Lance asked.
"To check and make sure Rogue is okay."
Fred moved quickly despite his weight in front of the door. "Leave her alone. She can finally touch someone without hurting them and you guys all want to ruin it."
"We like don't want to ruin it for her." Kitty insisted.
"Then let her have some time to herself with Colin and Pietro." Tabitha said.
"Anything but with Maximoff." Evan grumbled and sat back down in a huff.
***********************************************
"Ya did a good job." Rogue said smiling.
"Yea I did, didn't I?" Pietro asked smiling.
"Ya got some baby powder on yer fahce." She giggled as she moved her gloves hand to wipe it off.
Pietro shuddered slightly at Rogue's touch. Even if she had on her gloves it was as if she didn't at times. He put his hand up and took her hand into his. "Rogue.. I never got the chance to tell you before you left us that I..." He said moving towards her.
Rogue instantly moved near him. She knew she would end up hurting him, but it was like some sort of magnetic field pulling them together. His lips touched hers and they both waited for her powers to kick in. When they didn't they deepened the kiss. Pietro wrapped his arms around her waist pulling her closer to his body as she put her arms around her neck.
